Last night, about II o'clock, Your
Honor, ! was standing in the door of
the Morgue when a man came through
Dunday alley. He was bareheaded,
his nose was bleeding, and he was all
covered with sawdust.

looking like total wreck. Somebody
had atepped OF the fingers OF his left

All, said l, what's happened to
you?
Not much in particular. I've just
been down to Maginniss.
l went inside, Your Honor, and
presently l preceived a face peering
through the window of the Morgue
from the outside. 1t was the worst
bunged up face l ever saw. The
forehead was skinned and gorv, the
eyes were mere lines on mounds Of
discolored flesh and the lips were like
two slices Of csntalouPe. All his
front teeth were knocked out and
blood was dripping down bis shirt
